Toys and Crafts

This cute little guy is actually a prize from one of those claw/crane arcade games at Kroger. We usually take a minute to play a crane game if we spot one. Tiegan gets a kick out of choosing which prize to go after, and pushing the button. A win is rare, so this one was pretty special. She won't go to bed without this guy now, who she named "Stuffty Gluffty".


I love the hilarity of finding Tiegan's toys in silly places after she's done playing with them. The other day, I was heading toward her dollhouse to put it up, and noticed that she had put her dollhouse-people to bed in the garage.


This is Tiegan playing around with her new craft supplies after we were already done & working on picking everything up. Last night, we took a trip to JoAnn fabrics and got some things we thought would be great for Tiegan to make crafts with. Kid scissors, Elmer's glue, glitter glue, some acrylic paints, an alphabet stencil & stencil brushes, pipe cleaners, and colored popsicle sticks. So far, she LOVES crafting and has decorated a tote bag to keep all her supplies in. She also made a picture frame, decorated a big letter "T" for her bedroom door, and created a mask which I posted below.


OK, so this was more my creation than Tiegan's. I'm having fun with her crafts too... so sue me!
